The documentary will explore the stories and lives of some of the first Russian monks who came from the island monasteries in Valaam, Russia, across Siberia and the treacherous Bering Sea, to the Alaskan islands and mainland. Featuring Father Herman and Bishop Innocent, the film will show how these first missionaries had the central goal of “sanctifying the land” by spreading the Gospel, which they accomplished through their actions and their love of the Native Alaskans.Details
